Lawyers lie all the time. They talk about laws and such. One thing you never hear them talk about is section 32 of the Charter of rights and freedoms. As most people have heard the charter is the supreme law. What you haven't heard is it applies to the government, not the people. This means all law in Canada is meant for the government, they do not have the authority to make laws controlling the people. I have pasted it here for you to read for yourself. Section 32 - Application of Charter 32. (1) This Charter applies: to the Parliament and government of Canada in respect of all matters within the authority of Parliament including all matters relating to the Yukon Territory and Northwest Territories; and to the legislature and government of each province in respect of all matters within the authority of the legislature of each province. Exception (2) Notwithstanding subsection (1), section 15 shall not have effect until three years after this section comes into force. The purpose of section 32 is to make it clear that the Charter only applies to governments, and not to private individuals, businesses or other organizations. Subsection 32(2) was necessary to give governments a chance to amend their laws to bring them into line with equality rights. Section 15 of the Charter did not come into force until three years after the rest of the Charter became effective on April 17, 1982.
So if I comment on how classy your furniture is, (that I didn't see in a prior video) - does that make it a legitimate expense against your RUclips revenue? Another great episode - thanks!
I'm listening to several of your videos and taking you up on the offer to ask a question. I recall a woman in British Columbia at a ferry terminal getting into a dispute with a staff member. Another person took a video of her and then posted it on social media for the intent of receiving remuneration. I doubt the person had any idea as to the circumstances. If that was me having a disagreement with another especially one as an employee of the state, I would expect some privacy as my problem is no business to anyone else. Your thoughts?
Certainly it highlights that not everything that is unpleasant or intrusive is unlawful. It's ok to ask a member of the public to not record something, but in a public place they really don't have to comply.
I am a victim of malpractice in Canada. Now I see signs in doctors office saying not to record conversations. That’s makes me angry because I l ow how they lied made fake diagnostic to cover up their surgery than when horribly wrong. I would love to know why some clinics in Alberta have the nerves to put signs saying not to record conversations ? Also will you consider making a video about the healthcare’s system and our right regarding recording them ?
Technically, a doctors office is private property and they can put conditions on entry to the property, such as no recording. I may be worthwhile to have a conversation about why they have such a rule. In many cases, recording is very helpful to be able to go back over the physician's instructions. I know many people get stressed at the doctor and may not fully remember everything that was said. Most hospitals, for example, have policies about recording but the main concern is privacy of other patients.
Thanks for this, Steve. Kids privacy is an important topic and one that legally differs in Canada from many other places. I'll definitely address that in a future video. Thanks for the suggestion!
I have a neighbour who films his 10-year-old next-door neighbour threw a hole in his fence. The police have been called. The children’s aid have been called and neither will do anything about this pervert.
Tell your neighbor to put up a board covering the hole on their side of the fence. The peeping neighbor cannot deface and create a new hole without breaking the law
@ they did that now he sits on a ladder looking over the fence. When the police were called, they were told there’s nothing he’s doing that’s illegal and we are not the majority anymore and we better get used to it.
@1dilligaf Wow a ladder... film him back and up load to social media... title... My neighbor the peeping tom and tell him what you are doing. If it's OK to film her then begin the filming wars.
love your content! as a student finding videos that are detailed and informative is hard to come by so this is very helpful

They don't even know about the 3 designations expressed in the CCRF. Everyone, Citizen and Legal Person are not the same.

Hey David. If my RUclips channel is monitored is my recordings considered filming for commercial purposes?

In the first case why did the police have to "search" the computer? The evidence was given to them.
Opinion on Stewart vs Demme ?

So if a computer is hacked would that be a breach of section 8?
It's always circumstance specific. If it's a government doing the hacking without a warrant, it likely is.
@@privacylawyer umbrella was an AHS worker so goverment and their client.
How about a video discussing privacy concerns around parents tracking minor children & dependants on the electronic devices they use and carry

Yeah, our laws are fooked

@ damn good idea I never thought of that. I’ll mention that to my neighbor.
@1dilligaf
Hope it gets him to stop. I'd like to hear if it does. Good luck to your neighbor.
